minizip is a simple tool which allows the creation of compressed file
archives in the ZIP format used by the MS-DOS utility PKZIP. It was
written as a demonstration of the zlib(3) library and therefore lack
many of the features of the zip(1) program.

The first argument supplied is the name of the ZIP archive to create
or -o in which case it is ignored and the second argument treated as
the name of the ZIP file. If the ZIP file already exists it will be
overwritten.
Subsequent arguments specify a list of files to place in the ZIP
archive. If none are specified then an empty archive will be
created.
